The Lagos Region of the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) has successfully commissioned a new 300MVA power transformer installed at its 330/132/33kV Lekki Transmission Substation, Lagos State on December 19, 2025.
This was disclosed in a statement by the Transmission’s General Manager (Public Affairs), Ndidi Mbah at the weekend.
The 300MVA power transformer, according to the statement, increased the capacity of the substation from 300MVA to 600MVA at the 330kV side. It added that the 300 MVA power transformer will allow for more load on the 132kV side with redundancy and reliability during maintenance and planned outages.
According to the PDP, “This equally means more bulk power available for Eko Electricity Distribution Company to off-take to its customers in Lekki, Chevron Estate, Maroko, Agungi, and environs.
“This project is part of the ongoing TCN-World Bank power projects aimed at enhancing power supply in Nigeria”, it added.
